Russian President Vladimir Putin has suggested a three-way summit with US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping in November to discuss the Ukraine war and potentially broker a peace deal favorable to Russia, according to The Wall Street Journal. This proposal follows a telephone conversation between Putin and Trump on October 9, which led to an agreement allowing the US to purchase and distribute Russian diesel fuel globally.
The Kremlin's spokesperson, Dmitry Peskov, confirmed that discussions about the summit are ongoing, though no concrete details have been finalized. The US and European allies have expressed concern over the lack of Ukrainian representation in the proposed meeting. Trump has publicly claimed that negotiations to end the Russia-Ukraine conflict are progressing well, but he has not officially agreed to participate in the summit.
The idea of hosting the talks alongside the upcoming Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit in Shenzhen, China, has been suggested by the Kremlin.
